AD has proven a more effective halfback than both Latu and Luai. Now Madden has arrived, I’d shift Doueihi to 6 and send Luai away to make some shampoo commercials.

AD is consistently the best player in our team this past season and a bit despite playing out of position. Luai has done nothing, no matter who he is with. Big disappointment.

Did our on field leaders approach the ref and state this case? If this was Parra, Moses would have made sure someone got 10 in the bin.

Huge difference. Hunt was in-line for MOM before that drop and was executing his coaches plan beautifully.

Yeah should have known better 😖

Yeah this silly mentality that others have done it, therefore everyone can is harmful. Of course you can learn in reserve grade. You are playing against other up and comers or guys who have made it and are in a transition phase in their careers. Look at Sione Fainu. I remember people on here...

We are a top 8 side whose current position on the ladder is flattering. Unstructured eyes up attacking footy is our strength. The tough bruising defence is good to watch. There are many holes in our game though and we don’t have a leader on the field who controls the game and influences the ref.

This is exactly what people on here were saying when I suggested Galvin have a spell in 2024. Now here we are in 2026 at his second club watching him still struggle.

Didn’t do much….right or wrong 19 minutes for 42m and 14 tackles. Apart from that, a pretty clean sheet.

It’s a very arrogant call to say he is too far ahead of reserve grade when he has only played 4 games there, losing 3 and scoring just 1 try. It’s not true.

Not really. They are struggling a bit with their D, but have fast players for scramble and some big hitters for intimidation. We threw bugger all at them bar a couple of moments of out of the box brilliance.

Did you miss all the 6 agains we received in their 20m zone? Worry about how we can improve rather than sulking about ref decisions

Whilst I agree AD isn’t a halfback, neither it turns out is Luai. Take AD out of this team and it becomes less threatening. Take Luai out and it starts winning more. What is the lesser of the two evils?

At game speed I thought Api slipped off him and AD touched him on his way back up. This photo pinpointing a fraction of a second in time seems to contradict that. Shit happens. I am more concerned that in that particular game, one suspect call could end up the difference. We should have been...

Madden isn’t going to automatically unleash Luai. I don’t know why we rushed him back from injury. He played very poorly in this game just as he did last time he played against Souths. Similar tempo, similar lack of control. Call him whatever you want defensively or structurally, but results...
